Subject: [PATCH 2/6] e1000: warn if this driver is used for e1000e devices
Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2008 09:25:46 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080211172546.29090.29806.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080211172539.29090.99369.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

We're already starting to see reports from users still
using e1000 where they should be using e1000e now that this is
actually possible. Just to prevent some of this thrash, add
a big warning on load on these devices that people should
switch to e1000e.
